Italo Scelza

Italo Scelza was born in Avellino in 1939. He is a painter and has been a painting professor at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence since 1962. Always attentive to capturing the social moment of art, his name frequently appears in exhibitions of significant historical relevance. He specializes in venerating historical memory, revisiting and reconstructing it with the restless and dialectical spirit of contemporary culture. In 1989, he began his overseas experience, first staying in Canada with a solo exhibition in Toronto, and later in California with a solo exhibition in San Francisco.
